That is something completely different than what I'm talking about. I 
know ZPL 2.1 allows people to assign the copyright of ZPL'ed software to 
them instead of ZC. However, stuff in the zope.org repository 
automatically is half owned by ZC, as the contributor agreements states:

3. Legal Effect of Contribution. Upon committing a change or new work to 
the Zope source Repository (a "Contribution"), you agree to assign, and 
hereby do assign, a one-half interest of all right, title and interest 
in and to copyright and other intellectual property rights with respect 
to your new and original portions of the Contribution to Zope Corporation
